What kind of educational pursuit should a principal have?

"How big the heart is, how big the stage is"-the principal must have lofty ideals, without which it is impossible to achieve anything, and a school must never exceed the goals expected by the principal. A principal who has no pursuit of educational ideals and only wants to be the principal will never run an excellent school.

Then, how can schools rise rapidly in the fierce educational competition environment? At present, under the situation that the development trend of student-centered education is in the end, the key is to have confidence and courage to explore the ideal education and attract and repay parents with the ideal education.

1 Education with the soul

Tao Xingzhi once said: the principal is the soul of a school. The soul of the headmaster is the idea and concept of running a school. If a principal does not have his own school philosophy, the school will lack soul and vitality. It can be said that the principal's advanced school-running concept, school-running values, school development theme and development orientation are the most critical factors for the success of a school.

Modern education has moved towards modernization, informationization and networking. Based on the development direction of education at home and abroad, accurately grasping the strategy of running a school, such as the concept of running a school, should include four connotations:

The first is the core concept of the school. Humanities is the wing of talent growth, and developing individuality is the general trend of the development of education in the world. When positioning the school-running concept, the school regards "advocating science, promoting humanities, developing individuality and creating Excellence" as the core of the school-running concept, and this core is also our ideal pursuit for future education.

The second is the concept of moral education. Educational thoughts and practices such as "teaching without distinction" and "educating people with morality" tell us that education should go beyond cultivating the soul and strive to create a modern moral education model that can penetrate the soul.

The third is the teaching concept. As we all know, promoting teaching through research is an effective means to develop and improve education. As a teaching idea, teachers should be guided to transcend tradition and self, and truly embark on a brand-new educational reform road of invigorating education through science and education.

The fourth is the concept of learning. Learn with the passion of life, learn students' learning ideas with scientific methods, truly implement students' dominant position, fully stimulate students' passion for life, innovate learning modes and achieve first-class development.

Cultivate modern people with China's soul and world vision.

With the advent of global economic integration, education in China is facing severe challenges. Principals should look at the world, cultivate "modern people" with modern consciousness and ideas, have the ability and quality to survive, develop, start a business and succeed in modern society, and have a good mentality, healthy personality and moral quality to adapt to a high-tech, high-competitive and high-emotional society in modern society. This should be our educational goal.

Cultivate students with the real power of Chinese civilization.

Western cultural values are exerting a great influence on China's traditional culture, national spirit, ideology and morality. It is a common phenomenon that China students' innovative consciousness and practical ability are weak. These quality weaknesses have also seriously affected the competitiveness of China people in the international arena. Therefore, when running a school, school principals must consider students' six-year study in school, their development in the next 60 years and the development of the country in the next 600 years.

Strive to cultivate modern students who are in line with globalization and internationalization in terms of concept, language, culture, knowledge, ability and vision, can adapt to the needs of economic globalization competition and cooperation, have the soul of China, can survive and develop well in the world, and have international cultural literacy.

Among them, it is necessary to grasp the elements of building a "Chinese soul": China traditional culture, national spirit and Chinese traditional virtues are the core pillars of the Chinese soul, while China traditional culture is the root of the soul and the soul of the nation. Now, reading classics from the first grade of primary school, and trying to lay a good foundation for traditional culture in the prime time they remember, is a good foundation for development.

Cultivate students' tolerance and vision of integrating into the world.

First, cultivate students' international awareness, international understanding and global vision, and educate students to absorb and learn the excellent cultures of all nationalities in the world with an open mind and global vision;

The second is to cultivate students' global awareness, global skills and global behavior, master international communication skills, improve international cultural literacy and courage to participate in international competition;

Third, innovative learning methods, and strive to cultivate students' innovative consciousness, innovative spirit and creative ability, so that they can develop, compete and adapt internationally, and thus become the masters of the future world, cosmopolitans in China and China people going global.

Focus on building a comprehensive education model with core literacy as the core.

Principals should focus on the "national" and "global" school-running models, the core of which is to integrate and blend the essence of eastern education and western education, traditional education and modern education, strengthen the study of basic knowledge and skills, pay attention to the development of students' intellectual potential and the cultivation of innovative practical ability, and regard curriculum, moral education, teaching mode and learning mode as the four pillars of innovative education model.

It is necessary to build students' basic knowledge system and form basic academic ability. Other courses form students' comprehensive quality, establish students' broad knowledge background and form developmental and creative academic ability. Let students learn to learn to study independently while accepting learning, so that students can not only acquire knowledge and skills, but also acquire learning methods and thinking methods, and gain wisdom in life. This mode of educating people, in a sense, education is responsibility, and you should be responsible for running education.

3 Operating a credible education

Education is a social product, and social reputation is the life of education. Credibility is a school's brand, its unique biggest capital and its core competitiveness. Therefore, in the process of running a school and teaching, principals should pay attention to cultivating the credibility of the school and build the brand image of the school from four aspects: quality, characteristics, service and image, so as to enhance the reputation of the school, win the trust of parents and society, and seek the survival and development of the school.

Clear quality and value orientation.

The quality we pursue needs three characteristics:

First, face the quality of all students, completely change the traditional orientation of facing a few top students and ignore the educational value orientation of most students. Strive to create an education suitable for every student so that every student can get full development.

The second is the comprehensive quality of all-round development, that is, all students can get all-round development in personality, morality, study, personality and ability, and achieve the unity of high education and high quality.

The third is high quality under moderate burden, that is, practice. We should use educational research to create educational miracles, and use teaching high technology to create high efficiency and high quality, instead of being reckless.

Explore the actual effect of characteristic development.

Characteristic is the "bright spot" and "selling point" of the school, and it is also the direction and yardstick of the school. It is the special charm that people have no me, people have my superiority and people are superior to me. The characteristic is that influence is competitiveness.

First, to cultivate the characteristics of goals: to pursue ideals, students should have clear goals and life direction, be civilized, have moral principles, be disciplined and honest, distinguish right from wrong, know honor and disgrace, have good manners, and be confident and free and easy.

Second, the characteristics of moral education: the principal should carry out all-round, comprehensive and whole-process moral education around the goal of educating people, and form an enterprising learning atmosphere in the school through three ways: normative guidance, cultural guidance and activity experience.

Third, discipline characteristics: implement the construction of discipline characteristics and create discipline highlights from the aspects of cultural essence, teaching materials, teaching methods and learning methods. It is necessary to have theories in teaching and research, quality in teaching, characteristics in teachers and specialties in students.

Fourth, the characteristics of integration: according to the characteristics of disciplines and the physical and mental development of students, moral education, disciplines, management and other aspects are scientifically and effectively linked to ensure the systematization, continuity and efficiency of education.

Create ecological education services.

The most modern education is the education with the most service spirit. Principals must hold high the banner of educational services, occupy the market with service advantages, and strive to build a service-oriented campus, making the school a warm home for students, an ecological park, a sacred garden for culture, a paradise for growth, satisfying students and reassuring parents.

4. Develop education.

The mission of the school is development, and the principal should guide the school to have the development subject of self-cognition, self-development, self-restraint and self-value pursuit, so as to realize the benign interaction among school development, teacher development and student development. In order to achieve the development goal, the headmaster should regard campus culture as the environmental pillar to support the development of the school.

Positioning the core value of cultural education

Campus culture is the soul of the core value orientation of educating people and the source of cohesion and vitality of a school. Principals should strive to change the tradition, build a cultural environment of all-round knowledge education, and regard life, ecology, life and career as the core value culture of education.

Pay full attention to the life growth of teachers and students.

Schools should let education approach life, respect life, care for life, improve life, stimulate life vitality, burn life passion and realize the happy growth of life.

Pay attention to the ecological environment of teachers and students

The headmaster should strive for the conditions to build an elegant campus full of romance, fragrance, book fragrance and artistic atmosphere, so that the campus can become a comfortable reading place and a natural, fresh and diverse educational ecological park. At the same time, we should devote ourselves to building a good interpersonal environment, public opinion environment, policy environment, legal environment and normative environment, so as to make the school a natural, rich, open, inclusive, orderly and energetic educational ecological park, make the campus an oasis of life, and let students feel the green and fresh natural air and enjoy the classic and high-grade cultural air.

Pay rational attention to the career growth of teachers and students.

Principals must not sacrifice students' comprehensive quality and long-term development in exchange for short-term promotion rate. Instead, we should focus on the career growth of teachers and students, lay a solid foundation for students' healthy physical and mental development, lifelong learning and social development, and make four preparations for further study, employment, internationalization and successful life.

5. Pursuing the growth of education specialty

Pursuing educational ideals is the way for principals' professional growth and development. To realize the development of schools, teachers and students, principals must first develop themselves.

Therefore, the professional growth of principals must change from post-oriented to professional, from power-oriented to ability-oriented, from dependence to autonomy, from experience to innovation, and from management to business. To build a professional growth process of "learning-thinking-innovation-practice-reflection", we must stand at the forefront of the times and dare to innovate traditional and backward educational models and methods. Only in this way can the school keep pace with the times at every stage of development, constantly activate teachers' creative potential, constantly provide impetus for the development of the school, and make its work have higher pursuit, higher grade and higher grade.
